Lightweight, flows beautifully, great length
I'm 5'2", broad shoulders, athletic build, and this is my new favorite sweater. It IS lightweight, so it's not going to keep you very warm, but it's a good fall or spring weight. It's dead of winter now, and I wore it yesterday with a lightweight thermal shirt, scarf, and arm warmers and it was an elegant mid-layer, perfect for chilly northern indoor temperatures. If you're short, finding sweaters that hang just right is difficult - most are too long, or too short (cropped fad, I'm looking at you). This one skims the hips, covering the top of my jeans or trousers, but does not cover my ass - which to me is the perfect length. Why cover one of my best parts and in the process make it look bigger and like I'm trying to hide it? The length makes it very flattering, as if it was made to measure. The lightweight cashmere means that it hangs and moves with elegance. I was lucky and got it on sale - I will keep an eye on it for any future sales. I could do with 3 or 4 of these. Read more
